Handmade in the Netherlands
The Technivorm Moccamaster factory is centrally located in the heart of the Netherlands and serves customers all over the world.
The philosophy of the inventor, Gerard Clement-Smit, to produce high­quality, long-lasting and reliable products,
has been guiding the manufacturing of every coeemaker since 1964. Even today, each coee brewer is handmade and individually tested in a live situation, using
only the nest materials available. Energy eciency and recyclability play an important role in the design of each Technivorm Moccamaster Coeemaker.

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR PURCHASE
OF THE WORLD’S FINEST FILTER COFFEE BREWER!
THE MOCCAMASTER STANDS OUT!
The Technivorm Moccamaster Coeemaker’s advanced brewing technique has earned certications from the Specialty Coee Associations of America and Europe (SCAA & SCAE) as well as the European Coee Brewing Center (ECBC) Seal of Approval.
The ECBC approved seal is only awarded to products that have passed the extensive quality control and laboratory testing of the Norwegian Coee Association. Technivorm Moccamaster is the only manufacturer with ECBC approval for all its household machines.
Good-looking, high-tech coee brewers with fancy features do not necessarily brew better coee. Only coee brewers that make “the perfect cup,” in compliance with the association’s strict standards and regulations, are approved.

BEFORE YOU USE
Before using your new coee brewer for the rst time, or if the machine has not been used for some time, we recommend rst rinsing the water receptacle. Fill the coee brewer with cold water and operate once or twice without any coee.
POWER SUPPLY CORD
The short power supply cord is provided to reduce risks result­ing from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the 
extension cord must be at least as great as the rating of the coee brewer. The extension cord must be a grounding type 3 cord. The extension cord should be arranged so it doesn’t drape over the counter or table top where it can be pulled over by children or tripped over.
ENVIRONMENTAL RECOMMENDATIONS
• Please discard the lter and coee grounds by disposing them in an
organic waste container or compost heap. If not available, you may 
dispose of lters and grounds in normal household waste.
• For environmental concerns, please recycle responsibly.

OPTIONAL FEATURES
Brew-Basket
• The Moccamaster manual-adjust brew-basket has three settings:
Open For brewing a full pot of coee, 6–10 cups.
This setting manually allows for normal water ow over coee grounds.
½ Open For brewing a ½ pot of coee (2–5 cups)
or for use with brewing tea. This setting manually slows the drip to allow for longer saturation time.
Closed Stops ow of coee if you want a quick cup before
brew cycle
is complete (NOT recommended). This setting manually
stops
the ow to allow for a longer saturation time. This option will allow for overow if not watched closely! This setting also
stops coee drips at end of brew cycle for emptying the
brew-basket.
Hot-Plate Temperature Switch
• Glass carafe models: The hot-plate
temperature switch is explained with a full circle and a ¾ circle which maintains a holding temperature between 175-185° F degrees. Models without selection switch
automatically hold at 180° F.
Locking the (optional) footplate in place
• Tilt coee brewer backwards slightly.
• Hook footplate’s vertical rim into the
cut away opening, then lower brewer. Footplate is now locked in place.
• Place the thermal carafe on the footplate,
so it presses the white button on the inner base.
Destratication Tube
• The glass carafe with the destratication tube lid and the thermal carafe “Brew-Thru-Lid” 
make stirring of the coee unnecessary before serving resulting in a
warmer, pre-mixed brew.
Brew-Thru-Lid
• Scientically designed for minimum heat loss and maintains perfect temperature while brewing.
• Mixes coee automatically while brewing.
• Simply brew and pour—do not remove lid.
• Easy to clean.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
1. Power switch should be in the o position.
2. Position 9-hole outlet arm as shown in the diagram.
· Attach snuggly to the silicone gasket at the top of the cool water reservoir.
3. Fill cool water reservoir to the desired level, with fresh ltered or bottled cool water. Replace cool water reservoir lid.
· Reservoir is marked with the number of European cups: 4 oz. each.
4. Place lter in brew-basket.
· Place a standard #4 white paper lter into the brew-basket.
5. Add the appropriate amount of coee.
· For a full 10 cups, we recommend 6 level scoops (2 Tbsp each).
· The SCAA approved industry standard for the perfect cup is 2 tablespoons to every 6 oz. of water.
· We caution against the use of a gold mesh reusable lter; they tend to retain coee oils and clog very quickly, resulting in an overow of the brew-basket and lter.
6. Place brew-basket on bracket, position outlet arm over center of brew-basket.
· For manual adjust brew-basket models, adjust slide to open position.  CAUTION: Brew-basket will overow in a closed position.
· Replace brew-basket lid. 
 CAUTION: Scalding may occur if any of these parts are removed
during brew cycle.
7. Carafe placement:
· Place the glass carafe, with lid, on the hot-plate.
· Place thermal carafe, with the “brew-thru-lid” in brew position beneath the brew-basket bracket. (Carafe should be placed to depress the white button). We recommend warming the thermal carafe with hot water before use.
9
8. Switch the power switch to the “on” position.
· Thermal carafe model: The orange light will illuminate when the thermal carafe is placed properly against the white button.
· Glass carafe models with a hot-plate adjustable switch: Set hot-plate switch to the HI position,  lower when pot reaches ½ full, or if you prefer a less warm holding temperature.
9. The brew process will quickly begin; water will be brought to a boil, rising through the brewer across the outlet arm and into the brew-basket. Brew process is complete in 4 – 6 minutes.
10. We recommend disposing of coee grounds once brew cycle is complete.
· For models with adjustable brew-baskets: Move the slide to closed position prior to emptying.
11. The brewer should be switched o after use.
• Thermal carafe models:
· The heating element is not receiving power unless the water reservoir is full, engaging the ow-switch, and the white button is depressed; the only power consumption is at the power switch itself, resulting in a very energy-ecient brewer.
• Glass carafe models:
· Should be turned o when hot-plate use is no longer desired.
· Optional Auto-o models will automatically shut o in 100 minutes.
Now enjoy a perfect cup of coee, brewed to industry standards with your new Technivorm Moccamaster!
Coee tastes best immediately after brewing!

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
Basic Cleaning
• Clean the brewer regularly with a moist cloth and wipe dry. After each
use, hand wash the carafe and brew-basket with mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly. Carafe is not dishwasher safe. Thermal carafe coee oil stains may be removed by placing a small amount of dishwasher detergent and water in carafe and allowing it to soak overnight or we recommend the use of Cleancaf® by Urnex®.
• Do not submerge brewer in liquid.
Descaling Your Brewer
• Your coee maker must be descaled regularly to maintain
optimal performance.
• When mineral deposits build up in the heating element of your
Technivorm Moccamaster, it can clog the water ow and aect
the brew temperature and saturation time. If not descaled regularly, 
the brewer can stop working.
• Descaling products are designed to break down the lime scale and
mineral buildup inside your brewer to ensure consistent brewer functionality and great coee. We recommend the use of Dezcal™ by Urnex® for descaling your brewer.
• Vinegar may not eectively descale your brewer and can be dicult 
to thoroughly rinse. Vinegar may also leave behind an odor that could 
aect future brews.
• Technivorm Moccamaster recommends descaling your brewer every
100 cycles (easily remembered after every box of 100-count lters) or a minimum of every 3 months.
• Cleaning powders are designed to remove coee oils from the
brew-basket, carafe, etc.
• After descaling, run two brew cycles with water.
Anti-Frost Protection and Extended Storage Guidelines
• Turn the brewer o and remove the electrical plug from outlet.
• Remove the 9-hole outlet arm.
• Empty any remaining water within brewer by holding it upside down
over the sink.
• Replace the 9-hole outlet arm before using the brewer again.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why is my brewer not heating to 200° F?
The Technivorm Moccamaster Coeemakers operate on the scientic
principle of bringing water to a boil. It is this boiling action that causes  the transfer of the water to the brew-basket. If the water is not heated 
to the boiling point, it will not move to the brew-basket. The brewer is designed to move the proper amount of water (40 oz.) in the correct amount of time (5 minutes). This is the correct water contact time needed for the proper extraction.
What is the total brewing time for my Technivorm?
The complete brewing cycle should take 4 – 6 minutes. However, if the 
coee brewer is not descaled regularly, the scale/lime buildup could result in a slower brew time or simply cease functioning—the lights will be on, but the water transfer will not function until descaled with a product such as Dezcal™ by Urnex®.
Why doesn’t the Technivorm have a timer?
A great cup of coee starts with cool, fresh, ltered or bottled water and freshly ground or pre-ground packaged coee to achieve the perfect cup. When water is left in water reservoir overnight, it is depleted of oxygen, which is essential to brewing a perfect cup of coee. NOTE: Technivorm Moccamaster is fast; it only takes 30 seconds to start the brew process, with completion in 4 – 6 minutes.
Do the brewers automatically “shut o” after a set period?
The glass carafe models with the Auto-o option will shut o at 100 minutes. Glass and thermal carafe models without this option will need to be manually shut o after each use. NOTE: The heating element is not using power or activated except during the brew cycle when the water reservoir oat switch is engaged.
Why does this brewer have so many removable parts?
Parts that come in contact with coee have been designed to be removable for cleaning and replacement purposes. Clean equipment is critical to brewing good coee.
How do I order replacement parts?
Contact your local retailer for parts, which may also be ordered online at www.boydscoeestore.com/parts or by calling Boyds Customer Service at 1.800.223.8211.
